They met when Suresh (Ranjeet) hits on Sunita, and Sunita thinks that it was Kamal.. Sunita is from a rich family and Kamal from a middle class family. They initial hatred turns to love, when Kamal saves the damsel in distress. Sunita tries to repay the favor by buying Kamal some cricket equipment that he cant afford. But Kamal takes it otherwise and thinks Sunita is making fun of his humble background. Kamal relents when Sunita starts crying.

Sunita offers to drive Kamal to his village in her car, but the petrol runs out and they are stuck in a storm. They get randy inside the car. In the village Sunita meets Kamal's father (A. K. Hangal). Kamal's father like Sunita, but Kamal is sure that her rich father would never agree to this match. But Sunita's parents (Rehman and Dina Pathak) agree to the match as Kamal is educated and talented. Marriage is followed by honeymoon. Kamal's best friend Mohan (Sanjeev Kumar) enters their lives. Kamal takes a job in Mohan's company. Mohan is extremely happy to have Kamal and Sunita in his life. Mohan is a singer and instrumentalist. Mohan's wife Alka hates Mohan. Mohan also knows that this marriage was a compromise by his father to save the company as Mohan's family was bankrupt. Mohan knows that his wife is cheating on him, but wont divorce her due to fear of public humiliation.

Suresh works at the same company as Kamal. He gets Kamal to throw a huge party for entire staff. Suresh gets Mohan to play the sitar and Sunita to sing. Sunita doesn't sing when Kamal asks, but she sings when Mohan insists. This is the start of Kamal's obsession. Later, Kamal finds Sunita spending time with Mohan in his own house, when Kamal was supposed to be in the club. even though Mohan explains that he came back to his house, but Alka was away and hence he came to Kamal's to pass some time. Kamal is very observant and sees how Sunita likes the present from Mohan the best among them all. One night he finds someone running away from the direction of his house when he is about to enter. Kamal thinks it is Mohan, but actually that was Suresh coming out from Mohan's house (who lives just next door). Suresh was with Alka.

Kamal starts spying on Sunita, which she finds out. Kamal asks Sunita, whether she loves Mohan or not. Sunita is unable to convince Kamal that she loves only him. Sunita leaves house as she is humiliated. Sunita's father takes the matter to court, as a tactic to scare Kamal into talking to Sunita. But Kamal takes the legal notice as a challenge and decides to fight for divorce. Sunita's father doesn't show up in court due to fear of humiliation and the divorce is granted.

He goes to Sunita's father to apologize, but is thrown out of the house without meeting her as Sunita has remarried), while Sunita remarries to provide a secure home for her child. Many years later, Kamal is a beggar and finds an ad in the papers from Mohan, asking him to come back. Kamal returns to Mohan.
